four years of my life have definitely been some of the most exciting. The experiences of being a modern day pin up and getting elbow deep with a group of people\u00a0in the automotive and drag race culture is something that I will find satisfying probably for the rest of my life!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I initially fell into my modeling career by taking photos of cars at shows and races such as the Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona,Cal., as well as the Hot Rod Reunion at Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield. My upbringing as my Dad\u2019s one and only\u00a0 has probably led to my addiction of\u00a0 enjoying the smell\u00a0and sting in my eyes of race fuel and the collection of metal flake car colored nail polishes I have at home. For the remainder of my hopefully long life, I&#8217;ll always see automotive events being a part of it.\u00a0I&#8217;d prefer a &#8217;55 Nomad as my glorified &#8220;mom&#8221; car, and with the relationship I&#8217;ve established with Mooneyes, I&#8217;m having no problem staying Moon equipped most days!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My favorite part of all of this modeling has been the connections and relationships I&#8217;ve built with various companies and builders, as well as the photographers such as Mitzi. There are so many doors that have led to once in a lifetime opportunities\u00a0like going to the SEMA show, working with people from Japan, and getting to touch and sit in cars that were Ed Roth creations. It catches me off guard to realize that I&#8217;ve met so many of my automotive idols . I&#8217;m thankful for the kindness and good-hearted people who&#8217;ve welcomed and given me the opportunity to promote their companies and photograph with their rides.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One goal of mine is to inspire future generations of ladies to be proud of being &#8220;car girls&#8221; and never being ashamed of being a lady in a man\u2019s world. There&#8217;s nothing that makes me smile more than when all the people who&#8217;ve known me since I was little being drug around in a wagon at the Pomona Swapmeet\u00a0 can look at a car magazine and find me all grown up smiling back at them! It also melts my heart when young\u00a0girls run over to me at events and shows and ask for a photo; it&#8217;s like being a modern Disney princess!! And I still wonder why they&#8217;d want a picture with me, I&#8217;m just a gal that loves cars and being an everyday Pin Up.\u00a0 One thing that makes me easy to spot at shows is my 10 year old fur kid who tends to tag along to shows I attend and he&#8217;s been known to ham it up for photos as well. My Catahoula Lobo dog seems to love the drags as well as I do! So if you happen to be somewhere and see a girl and her dog simply enjoying the show, don&#8217;t hesitate to come over and say hello!!!\u00a0 If I could take a few words to thank everyone who&#8217;s helped me along the way , it would most likely eat up a whole 3 pages !!! But I haven&#8217;t forgotten a single one of you !
